"We're so excited at how the Borderlands 2 experience continues to grow with Captain Scarlett and her Pirate's Booty and the fifth playable character class, the Mechromancer," said 2K Games president Christoph Hartmann.

"With hours of new story-driven content to play through and an entirely new character to play as, gamers are getting a lot of additional value. The really exciting part is that we're just getting started."
